HAvIRD WINs.-Judge Broderick'
w. II. DAILY.

HAvIRD WINs.-Judge Broderick's
decision in the case of John Gorman
VS. C. G. Havird, Sheriff of this county,
was received last Friday. Havird,
by the count of the County Commiss-
toner's, received two majority. Cor.
man brought suit in the District Court
alleging that Havird was not legally
elected, was usurper, etc, etc., and
that Long Valley precinct was in
Idaho county. Judge Broderick's
decision is as follows, in substance:
German is given two votes in the
Lower Squaw Creek precinct. Two
ballots, each with both Havird and
Gorman's names on for Sheriff, the
former printed and the latter written,
were not counted by the Judges of
Election for either candidate. The
Judges decision is that these votes
should have been counted for German.
The two Wadishes, father and son,
who, for number of years have been
running freight teams from kuna and
Boise City to this place and Banner
we're declared non-residents of this
county. They voted at Shaw's Noun
tain precinct for Havird, and thei
votes were declared illegal, reducing
Havird's total vote two. J. M. Will
,ams and David Williams, who votet
in this precinct were found to be citi
zens of Ada county. One voted TO
Havird, the other for German. Bot
were thrown out. S. A. Walker
, Frank Munroe and Jerry Goodsill, re
sidents of Ada county, voted in Lowe
Squaw Creek precinct. All three vol

according 70 the Chinese history, that
many large and heavy pressure ga
wells were struck, and in some dis

He fell on the table and Dunning

AUeusr ~, 1857.


Ed. WoRLD: There has been much
improvement in this district in the last
two or three weeks. Sheep Mountain
is full of men, and nobody idle. They
are sinking shafts or driving tunnels,
and some of them both. A good
body OF ore has been struck in the
Sea Foam mine, in Sea Foam District.
A shaft has been sunk. The owners
of the Joseph, on Lake creek, have
sunk shaft, and got good ore, which
goes all the way from $50 to $4,000
per ton. They are talking Of shipping
some ore this season. The Tracy mine,
owned BY Miller, Waller 4 Co, on
Rapid River, is eight feet wide, and
looks we'll.
The Sheep Mountain District makes
a good showing. The Mountain King
shows large body Of good ore. The
DAILY Bros. and Bowers have gone
through eleven feet of ore, are still
driving ahead, and the mine looks bet
ter every foot they go. No telling how
much richer and larger it will prove
to be. The owners have gone to Bo-
nanza for provisions. They expect
to open up the mine in good shape
Elliott & Rhoad's mine looks we'll.
They will ship six or eight tons this
fall to Ketchum.
The Abe Lincoln mine, on Bernard
Mountain, is unfolding its treasure
nicely. This mine is owned by Bow
ers, of Boise City. The Mountain
Chief, located half mile south O
the Mountain King, has been openet
| by sinking shaft, and the owners
Pfost, Peterson and Hickey, are no,
driving 3 tunnel to tap the ledge
, There are many other mines in thi
district. They are unlike some mines
that the more you dig on them the les
you get. These out here are just t
the contrary the more they are dc
4 veloped the better and bigger are tt
{ ore bodies. All this country lacks is

after an awful struggle, escaped, but
many of them were greatly injured.
There was only one exit from the
gallery, and the rush there was
terrific Scores were trodden under
foot and suffocafed. A fire-escape
was brought to window
and many inside were rescued.
Sixty corpses have been removed.
The injured survivors were sent to a

The structure burned was the
